1. manbags- this one always makes me laugh, purses are for women!
HA HA - well, so many of them are wearing make-up these days!

2. hats that are 10x to large for your head-looks cute on the small child, but not so much on the grown man
Grown men ARE small children?

3. skeleton outfit- have you guys seen one? its a sweatshirt and sweat pants with a skeleton drawn on it, where did this come from?
It's a leftover from Halloween. Forgot to do laundry.

5. baggy pants that sit at your knees- will this trend ever go away?
I hope so. Also, low hip huggers that make your backside look low and flat.
Why do you want to flatten your butt? EEEEyukk!

6. old women jogging in central park in a sports bra and short shorts-
come on ladies, there comes a time to hang up the skimpy clothes

Hope dies hard!

7. wearing matching outfits with your spouse/girlfriend/boyfriend
It's the women. They want their friends to know they can make their man do ANYTHING!

New York is by far the best dressed city in America! There are several "New York Style" blogs on the web. Like this one Wunderbloc | New York Boutiques, Local Shopping and Street Fashion

Well dressed? Nah, it's a cheap little schmatte, not very flattering, but this gal doesn't need flattering. She's gorgeous even in a schmatte. Beckham syndrome, female version.


I assume that the example of well-dressed in this pic is not the couple from Louisville, on the left.

These were trendy in my neighborhood this past winter. I think they look ridiculous on anyone other than of Andean origin.

I hate flip flops, and her clothes aren't really nice; I just posted her because she's beautiful!
